Hickory, Dickory........Old King Cole......















It really is a child's world, even Medalta made wonderful dishes for children complete with nursery rhymes and pictures.  Imagine being a young child and sitting down to eat and finding something like that on the bottom of you bowl!
















We have found a couple different styles of bowls and plates all have wonderful graphics that would appeal to the not only the children but the grandparents as well.



 I say grandparents because I am sure that there were times the parents were working so hard to make ends meet that it would the grandparents to find the joy in such a simple thing.






In the 1930-40 time period when most things were very utilitarian a child's dish must have been quite a novelty and not found in every household.  What fun pieces to collect and hunt for!







 And the search continues.........
